History and the Area

BCG in Amsterdam was founded in 1993 through a merger with local Dutch consultants Horringa & DeKoning. BCG Amsterdam's first office was situated in a beautiful country house in Baarn. With success comes growth, and when we outgrew the Baarn office we moved to Amsterdam. In 2007, BCG in Amsterdam moved to an ultramodern office situated at the Zuidas in the southern part of town. The Zuidas is an innovative, international business hub within close reach of Schiphol Airport and the historic city center, where you can find many cultural highlights that are worth visiting and some, like the famous Concert Building, that we have actually worked with!

Who We Work With

Our Amsterdam office serves both Dutch multinationals and a variety of medium-size companies, institutions, and governmental organizations. Our consulting staff works on projects ranging from corporate development to operations in industries such as consumer goods, energy and utilities, financial services, and technology and communications.

Welcome Letter

Not too long ago – late 2010 to be precise – I was in a similar position as many of you today: Was strategy consulting a logical next step for me? Would I fit in at BCG? Was I up for the interview process? Etc.

In hindsight I can only say that applying and joining was the best decision of my professional life. I was looking for a dynamic environment and accelerated personal development. And I found all of this and much more: BCG is my professional home, shared with an inspiring group of colleagues with whom I work on interesting challenges across industries and geographies. And with whom I have a lot of fun on a daily basis.

Today I’m a partner focusing primarily on the Energy and Chemicals sectors – both fascinating global industries, each facing specific challenges and societal impact. In addition I head our recruiting team in Amsterdam, with a lot of passion: Our talented people make all the difference, and attracting the next BCG-generation is critical.

I can only encourage you to interact with us: You will only really know if BCG is for you when you get to know us – and we want to get to know you!
